Looks like it's out on the App Store, but unfortunately no firmware to be able to make use of it yet. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dji-assistant/id699413553?mt=8

I have the landing gear (ch8) mapped to SF with travel at 80/80 and the channel reversed. If intelligent gear is enabled, the gear will not retract at all unless you're up in the air about 10m. With intelligent gear off, however, the gear does retract at any time. Physical connections are just...

To add to this, if you are using Futaba FASST-MULT with the built-in DR16 RX, you do not need to configure fail-safe channel positions for throttle or U channel. The A2 will automatically detect loss of signal on the rx and enter failsafe mode. Configuring failsafe preset positions on these...

ddkie, I'm not talking about a program mix forced failsafe assigned to a switch. I have that setup too and it works perfectly. I'm talking about failsafe positions assigned to a channel for loss of signal. I'm curious if you assign failsafe preset positions on your transmitter, if you will see...

Maybe I overlooked the obvious, and just assumed that failsafe needs to be configured on the transmitter for the DR16 to work in failsafe mode when the TX is lost. Failsafe still shows active (according to the LED) when no failsafe is enabled on any channel, and the radio is turned off. Of...

So it seems that this problem is only on channels with F/S set. Well that's all fine and dandy, but i would like to set F/S levels for throttle, gear and flight mode, but those with be jittery during normal use if i have F/S on anything but HOLD. Here is a video of the problem. For the purposes...

Spoke to Greg at Atlanta Hobby this morning, and emailed him a description of the problem, which he will be forwarding on to DJI. Who knows how long it will take to get an answer, but I will share with the forum as soon as I find out more. In the interim, I'll fly with an external SBUS receiver...

Ha! The sad part is that that's the first thought that popped into my head, and through the previous purchase of 2 WKMs, 2 NAZAs and a WKH, that I've been brainwashed into believing that it's all OK, and eventually I'll be able to update my way into a working product. In all fairness, I knew I...

Received my A2 a few days ago and finally had some time to finish up the install last night. Binding with Futaba 14SG was relatively straightforward, but upon first spooling up the S800, there was an occasional "twitch" or "bump" on certain motors. Certainly didn't dare do anything but get her...

Thanks Ken.... TX/RX failsafe are indeed set correctly, with throttle mid-stick, ail/ele/rud neutral, gear down and aux2, which is my flight mode switch on the 9503, set to failsafe/RTH. WKM assistant shows the system goes into failsafe when the TX is turned off, and I have tested it numerous...

Actually, I think the short duration of the power loss, and the fact that it was all motors at once is the only reason it seemed to maintain its attitude. Well, I suppose that's not entirely true... The zen made it look a LOT smoother than it really was. What you see flying through the top of...

Unfortunately no iOSD, but I suspect that will be changing soon. The lipos (2 x 5000mah thunder power) are in great shape, and the voltage right after this happened was 24.3. Under load, this would still be in the 23 range. I do use JR9503/DX7i txs and AR9010/AR8000 rxs (both with sats), so I...

Hello all, Have been flying MRCs for a while now, and have been enjoying silently reading the forums, but now I need some feedback. I have an otherwise perfectly stable S800/WKM/Zen rig that displayed the most odd and frightening behavior on a shoot yesterday evening. I have not had any issues...
